The Weather.

So many harsh things have been
said concerning the weather during
the past six months that it is genu-
inc pleasure to encourage its apparent
effort to do better. Balmy spring days
are these, full of sunshine and promise,
days that cause rejoicing among the
people that their lines are cast in such
very pleasant places. Vermont aver
ages pretty well after all.

A Reform Address.

Rev. j. S. Mulligan, district secreta-
ry of the National Reform association,
delivered Il lecture on National Chris
tianity at the Presby terrain church
Monday evening. The theme was the
work of the association which the
speaker represented and which holds
and labors to teach as fundamental
principles of civil government, that
Almighty God is the source of all ma
tiOnal power and authority that the
Lord Jesus Christ is the ruler of the
nations and that the Bible contains
laws for nations and is the supreme
standard by which all moral issues are
to be decided. The speaker declared
that the carrying of the mails on Sun
day has been the fruitful parent OF
nearly all our public Sabbath desecra-
ton. The license of the liquor traffic
was also condemned aud the recogni-
ton of God in the constitution of this
country urged.

The Judith Country.

From &C. Morrison, who arrived on a
flying trip from the mining districts in
that vicinity, we gather the following
items:
The ranehmen on Wolf and Arrow
creeks have nov commenced gathering
their hay crop, which promises to be very
large. Grain, however, is backward
compared to this section.
Mr.. Pierce Of. Running Wolf has the
finest timothy in northern Montana, il
averaging seven feet in height.
Bear are more numerous in the Belt
mountains than they have been for ten
years, and farmers in the foothills are
suffering from their depredations on
stock.
Sage, Willow and Wolf creeks have had
severe th under.torms last month, which
lasted for twenty two consecuti e days.
A large ave has been discovered on
Wolf, the entrance to which is a natural
shaft 100 feet deep perpendicular. It's
extent is unknown, but preparations are
now being made to explore it. This may
possibly be attended with some danger,
but with proper precautions grand results
are expected.
P%rospectors are scattered through the
mountains and have unlimited faith in
the future of the various camps.

THE MILL.

The Cataract Mill Company Of this
city are increasing their storage capa-
city and adding considerable new
machinery. They have now the best
equipped mill in the territory and are
well prepared to keep up the high
reputation of their noted brands,
Diamond" Cataract" "Gold Dust"
and "Silver Leaf In order to create
and maintain in Montana a high
standard Of wheat, equal to that Of
the famous mo. 1hard" of Minnesota
and Dakota, the company intend to
keep on hand this fall asnpplyo of the
best seed wheat, for the accommoda-
ton of the farmers. They will i'm
port this wheat especially forthe pur-
pose and will sell it at actual cost. It
is hoped that farmers will avail them
selves of this offer, which will enable
them to raise large crops Of the best
wheat.

THE ALIEN ACT AGAIN.

As the alien act includes the Dis
trict of Columbia, there is a fair pros
pect that it will be speedily modified
as soon as congress meets. As now
construed it would prevent the en-
bassies from acquiring residences and
interfere with those casual invest
ments by aliens, such as Mr.. Langtry,
which cheer the heart of the real es-
tate dealer.
The whole bill should be speedily
repealed and replaced by n which
will exempt mines and not be ambig-
nous. It is clear from President
Cleveland's queries and Attorney
General Garland's replies that the
bill is beset with the grayest uncer-
tainty, and may affect the immigrant
who leases d temporary dwelling as
well as the foreign cattle kings whose
rapacityit was designed to check.
It would not accord with public
policy to allow nonresident foreign
ers to buy immense tracts in the ter
ritories and hold them until actual
settlers in the neighborhood had rem
dered such tracts valuable by their
enterprise and toll. Too much has
been done in that way by speculative
foreigners already. Means can, how
ever be found to check such greed
without retarding the development of
mines or prevent the investment of
foreign capital in houses and lots,
We are pleased to see that the
Mining and Scientific Press of San
Francisco is in accord with the terri
torial journals in denouncing the alien
act. It says: at would be well for
our Pacific coast delegation to do all
in their power to SC amend the alien
act, that was 'railroaded through at
the close of the last session, that the
mineral lands and mines Of our terri
tories shall be excluded from the eff
fects of this impolitic measure.
America for Americans is all very
well, and American capital for Ameri-
can mines is something desirable;
but, unfortunately for us, our CAPT
talists are, with but few exceptions,
not mine investors, particularly IN
mines of the precious metals. They
prefer other classes of securities. IN
less the act is amendeds SO as to admit
and encourage foreign capitalists on
liberal terms to invest in our mines,
the result will be that a large per
centage of the mines of our territories
will remain undeveloped and dormant
until we, as a nation, shall have be-
come mine workers and capital shall
have become more abundant. Avery
large amount of capital has been al
ready withdrawn by English inves-
tors from this country"
In seeking revision the territories
may rely on the Pacific coast delega-
ton and the Legislative influence Of
New York, where the investment of
foreign capital is SO commonly nego-
tiated. This support, with the active
aid Of the Washington property
owners, may be efectual.

SPREAD THE LIGHT.

The extra session will afford the
Legislature a opportunity to take
measures for the encouragement of
immigration. Hitherto Montana has
allowed Dakota and New Mexico,
which has not q 1.-THE Of her resources
TO Guido her in this respect. Even
Arizona has been allowed to occupy
public attention, while Montana with
her fertile plains and valleys, rich
mines and broad rivers has stood by
expecting that land prospectors would
learn for themselves much needful
information which even observant old
settlers have not acquired.
After much experience in difusing
information!Dak k perseveres in that
praiseworthy course with zeal which
Montana should emulate. Our neigh
Dor has a bureau Of immigration
which appears to be in good hands
as Mr. Mcclure, the commissioner,
has prepared q pamphlet which will
give "all the facts about the soil, eli
mate, productions, schools, churches,
railroads, etc., Of Dakota by coun-
lies, so that a person contemplating
emigration TO the territory can tell
very readily what locality best suits
his taste, means, etc"
This information will be given in
systematic form as the details re-
garding each county will include the
following: Area, when organized,
surface, soil, timber, streams. lakes,
ETC., total miles of railroad, with
names OF lines and stations; vacant
public lands, banks, newspapers,
county seats, with population, other
important towns; school statistics,
churches and their denominations,
membership, ETC.; livestock of all
kinds. artificial forests, number Of
acres OF trees cultivated, assessed val
uation OF real and personal property,
list Of county officers, of post-ofices,
population OF each county, etc, etc.
twenty-five thousand copies OF this
pamphlet will be printed for free cir
cnlation. 1t will contain those color
ed diagrams which show so we'll the
relative productiveness and growth Of
states, and a large colored allegorical
picture which represents Dakota as q
young girl, holding in her hand a
scroll for the inspection of Uncle
Sam. On this scroll is given her quail
ifications for neutrality-suspicious.,
products, schools, churches-in short,
an epitome OF the book just prepared.
Uncle Sam. is carefully examining this
through his glasses, while Columbia,
standing in the background, is begin
ming TO write 9 new name ON the roll
OF states. The letters "Dan are al
ready written and she waits for the
signal to go on. On the roll beneath
her appear the population and princi-
pal products Of the states long since
admitted, and the contrast is so etrik-
ing as to make the injustice of delay
ing the admission Of Dakota apparent
at glance"
